CELEBITCHY – Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz of Florida is defending himself — sort of — against a report that he paid for the travel of 17-year-old while also having sex with that 17-year-old.

DLISTED – In her first public comments since Framing Britney Spears dropped earlier this year, Britney herself said that the documentary made her cry for two weeks. Britney also said she hasn’t seen the documentary
VOX – Yesterday, New York became the fifteenth state to legalize the sale & growth of marijuana.

LAINEY GOSSIP – Something about these pictures of Rihanna going to and coming from the grocery story makes me very happy. I don’t know exactly what it is and frankly I don’t want to know; I just want to be happy for a minute
GO FUG YOURSELF – Speaking of which, GFY’s throwback photo galleries are always a fun time: “While We’re Here, We Might As Well Glance at the Rest of the 2000 Oscars”
